She was the unsung hero of this Olympics. The mental rollercoaster she went through from Nationals to the podium at the Olympics is what being a true champion is all about. The absolute epitome of someone who never quit.
What happened at nationals ?
@@zmtrackfan literally nothing, just someone trying to write a hero story...
@@tomasduarte6633 thought as much 😂
@@zmtrackfan She didn't place well at Nationals, then was top 4 on the first day at trials, then was selected as an individual rather than for the team despite being part of the highest scoring team, then initially didn't make any finals during qualifications at the Olympics, and then ended up winning an Olympic silver. On top of already having suffered as a previous Olympic alternate and coming back to the elite level after doing NCAA (a very rare thing until recently). Definitely a rollercoaster for her.
@@Zuranthium For clarity, nationals is only a stepping stone. Mykayla knew she had to peak at trials. From winter cup or classics (i forget which was first) ---> Trials, mykayla was improving comp to comp, so it wasnt shocking she did better at trails bc it followed her trajectory.
Now team selection was controversial. Mykayla was a better fit for the team than grace with her vault, but tom solely went by all around rank order at trials and nothing else (even NBC commentators didnt understand grace's selection). There was also some controversial about Grace's last floor score (and grace only finished like 2 or 3 tenths above skinner after 2 days, whereas skinners vault/floor after 2 days was a point i think. but with that controversy you could point to skinner's final beam score night 2, but overall grace to me had more domestic inflation enough to cover the difference in their domestic overall scores). So mykayla went to olympics as an individualist which means she would not be in the team. In quali, she had ok vaults (better than most, but not great) and missed vault final due to the 2percountry rule. Ironically, her all around total was higher than grace/jordan (and higher than both in qf and tf). Skinner then retired, but due to simone getting twistie and withdrawing from vault final, skinner un-retired and entered vault final, winning silver medal.
You really can’t beat American gymnasts for tumbling. Sure, the choreography could use work in many cases, but their sheer power is insane, a talented bunch.
That's why I love watching them, they don´t disappoint when it comes to big time skills
She was fabulous in 2021, can you just imagine how great she was in 2016 and was only named an alternate? Speaks to just how much depth there is in the American women's gymnastics ranks over the last 20 years. ❤️🥰
I know Mykayla struggles with form errors, but I’m very surprised this routine didn’t land her in the floor final because of the sheer difficulty. Not to mention, the form errors weren’t super major. Regardless, this was an amazing routine and I’m so glad she got to live her Olympic dream
One of my favorite gymnast. Really unfortunate she often missed big meets because of the US depth. Very talented, I just wish her form deductions wouldn't have eaten away at her score so much. 😭
did you know she’s racist?
@@miagabriel4329 she’s not racist
@@miagabriel4329 she’s not 😭
@@miagabriel4329 She's a great friend of Simone and shared a room with her in Tokyo; Simone invited her to be part of her pro tour afterwards. I guess that speaks for itself.
be soooo proud, MyK, that final pass was epic. loved the dead fall in the middle with the music. such a talent.
She is a fighter, was amazing to see her realize her dream, unfortunally she had many problems with form, artistry and leaps deductions, but her performance on vault was greant, and she won a medal, thats it.
College helped her improve so much, she did fabulous herr and I hope she's proud of her Olympic accomplishments!
She was amazing absolutely well deserved sliver medal 🏅 👏
That’s my favorite routine from MyKayla. I love the music!
I like her so much! She is a true inspiration
MyKayla did her best in this fx routine. It is the cleanest execution I ever seen her do other than that wolf turn. She deserved to be on the team in my opinion over Grace.
Over Jordan. Grace was great for the team.
@@eiraremejeene it’s easy to say Jordan shouldn’t have been on the team now but she was the most consistent out of anyone else the entire year so they couldn’t not take her. I think the lack of international experience and the drama going on with her mom were what made her falter in Tokyo. Plus, we can’t forget that she only fell on floor in the team final. She contributed a lot on the other 3 events
I always wondered why she never took out that wolf turn, she could almost never do it cleanly. She used to do a double arabian, which I miss seeing her do. I would’ve scored her 0.2-0.3 higher here, but at least everything worked out in the end, all the girls came home with a medal
@@rugbyplayer9100 she was also one of the most consistent gymnasts after her win at the winter cup while everybody was falling at domestic meets, her mom going to federal prison and her gym partner Simone folding around Tokyo time definitely played a factor :(
I think the team should of consisted of Simone , suni , Jordan and mykayla
Floor- Simone , Mykayla , Jordan
Vault- Simone , mykayla , Jordan
Bars-suni,Simone, Jordan
Beam- Simone, suni and mykayla
My Kayla!! And will always be my Kayla!!💗💗
Omg 😮 perfect routine is my time 😳!!
Excellent performance congratulations 👌👌👌
She’s a fighter!
What’s crazy to me is that she wasn’t even part of the all around team and yet scored higher than some of the girls who were 😂 definitely a missed opportunity there
yes xd she and Jade Carey were better than Chiles and Grace (i love boths but that was not their day), if she had not fallen on beam she will take Carey's spot on the AA final after Simone withdraw, and if she had better landings on floor, maybe she will be in FX final too. With Jade, Simone, Suni and Skinner, the team will have a great advantage on floor and vault (Simone, Jade, Myk) also with bars and beam (Suni, Simone and Jade on bars and Myk on beam)
🔥🔥🔥Amazing performance! well done!😍❤❤❤👏👏👍
Indeed 🙂
Please post Lu yufei "shape of you" Floor routine
can u imagine if she did these routines in 2019 worlds! (all round silver,vault silver,floor silver) for event and all round finals!
Seriously one of my favorites gymnasts ever. She’s so underrated🤍
Mykayla is very underrated. She is a fantastic gymnast.
Today is my birthday
Woahhhh!!!
Seria ótimo ver um filme com sua história
FX Final material. Had the time of her life. Long overdue
Her silivas is the best ever imo
Yeah don’t share your opinion because you only embarrass yourself
Big mistake USAG didn’t put her on the team and gave her the individual spot
You are strong

As a Mykayla Skinner Stan.......
Porque no quedo ella en la final del suelo en el lugar de Simone biles?
Because she didn’t get the 9th place in qualifications, the one who got Simone’s place
why she didn't make the final??
Her E scores continually hurt her throughout her career. In Tokyo, Simone, Jade, and Jordan all placed ahead of her on FX for qualifying.
That was a really deep FX field in general that year, though the final was weird in that Rebeca, both Gadirovas, and Listunova all made mistakes that knocked them out of medal contentions. And they ended up giving out a double bronze. But even still, MyKayla wouldn't have come close to the medals based on her quals score. Those E deductions always got her...
@@SweetSirenia thanks for the details
Myk
Mykayla should’ve been on the team idc
Regardless what you think of her gymnastic ability, to gotta at last appreciate how incredible it srhat an 'ilder' gymnast who has very poor flexibility made it tonto an Olympi team twice. (us, I counting her time being a reserve)
I do agree with what you said, but at the same time, you're comparing her flexibility to the women only. Male gymnasts are usually just as or even more inflexible than her, and they do both vault and floor, often times with harder moves, so it's clear that great flexibility is not a requirement for performing the skills. In fact, flexibility can increase the chance for injury on harder moves. Shawn Johnson also had way lower than average flexibility for a female gymnast, and she did awesome at the Olympics.
🇮🇷💚❤💙🤝🏼🇺🇸
Why she didn't qualify to the EF? She did a better routine than Jennifer Gadirova & the other reserves
Because she didn’t qualify unlike Jess who did. Myk had a high D-score but her execution was a mess and she had very low E-score
She did NOT beat Simone or Jade. Only TWO per country to event finals. Beyond that, her score was nowhere near the top 8.
2nd
First.. 😊
ReADYACTION
Incredible? In what way
A way that you could never be
What you said about the girls was so unnecessary…or might I say…unethical. Iykyk
Skinner the only gymnast to compete 2 silivas in one routine.
